"A Horse with No Name" is a song by the band America. It was their first and most successful single, released in 1972, topping the charts in several countries. It was certified "gold" by the Recording Industry Association of America.[1]

I've never heard of the group America. I remember the song

"I've riden through the desert on a horse with no name. Felt good to get out of the rain" or something like that.

Sparky!!!!

Scarlett's givin' clues based on groups I don't knowwwww!

Clay sang America? God Bless America? America The Beautiful?

All I remember is The Star Spangled Banned, lol.

Next stop. CU and "A Capital Fourth"....if I can figure out where the heck to look there!

But I said it because of the group, America, nothing to do with nameless horses, and I was !! actually thinking of that song but misremembered the title. I made sure to go to Scarlett's clack to look for how she named the file. I wasn't there though. Scarlett was, obviously.

I'm still not sure it's right. WTF does "a horse with no name" have to do with "song"?? I don't get it.
